New for 2015

The 2015 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque adds reverse traffic detection to the blind spot monitor and a perpendicular park feature on the advanced park assist features. A new convenience package for Pure and Pure Plus models now include hands-free keyless access and navigation with voice control. A limited edition Autobiography model is new for the 2015 model year and has an uprated engine, revised chassis, larger 13.8-inch front brakes, and a retuned nine-speed automatic transmission. It will only be available in four-door Evoques and in base or Dynamic grades. Styling changes include 20-inch alloy wheels, and jewel-like “crystal” headlights. Six interior color choices are available in the Autobiography variant and four in the range-topping Autobiography Dynamic model. LandRover InControl Apps, which give owners access to smartphones apps has also been added to expand the functionality of the Evoque’s infotainment system.

Vehicle Summary

Available in two- or four-door configurations, the 2015 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque is an all-wheel-drive, two-row luxury crossover. Its only engine is a turbocharged 2.0-liter I-4 with 240 hp and 250 lb-ft of torque mated to a nine-speed automatic transmission. The Autobiography models use the same 2.0-liter turbo I-4 but it has been uprated to 285 hp. Like larger Land Rover offerings, the Evoque is also available with Terrain Response, which allows the driver to select between various modes based on the terrain conditions. Fuel economy is good for the class at 21/30 mpg city/highway.

Overview

Even though the 2015 Evoque is the smallest vehicle in the Land Rover lineup, the crossover is capable on- and off-road thanks to its standard all-wheel drive; 8.3-inch ground clearance; and generous approach, departure, and ramp angles (25, 33, and 22 degrees respectively). Land Rover’s Terrain Response system also enables the Evoque to go nearly anywhere by giving the driver the ability to tailor the car to terrain conditions. On-road performance is just as impressive, especially with the available adaptive dynamics with MagneRide damping technology, which improves on-road handling and improves the crossover’s ride quality.

Despite the raking exterior, the 2015 Evoque’s interior is spacious and has enough room for four adult passengers in both the two- and four-door. Cargo space is good, even with its eye-catching styling with up to 51 cubic feet of volume depending on the body style. Material quality is top-notch with high-quality leather, plastics, and trims used throughout the entire cabin. Interior design is also notable with its tasteful appearance and can be customized in various color combinations. Optional features include two Meridian audio systems, navigation, 19- or 20-inch wheels, contrasting roof colors, and a surround-view system.

What We Think

Among two-row luxury crossovers, the Range Rover Evoque is one of few off-road-capable thanks to its long list of driver aids, excellent all-wheel-drive system, and Terrain Response system. It won Motor Trend’s 2012 SUV of the Year because of its ability to handle off-road driving and go anywhere thanks to its Terrain Response system, which enables the driver to tailor the car to terrain conditions. In a 2012 First Test review, we said that on-road performance was also a strong point due to the crossover’s remarkable agility and responsiveness, making it “fun and enthralling” to drive. However, comfort suffers as a result of the Evoque’s impressive on- and off-road driving dynamics, making its ride “rough and choppy.” Although the Evoque’s interior is stylish and well laid out, the infotainment system is slow to respond compared to other units from vehicles in its segment.
